The next day you are awoken by Wanda jumping on your bed excited for shopping.
"Errr what time is it" you groan.
"Time to get up so we can hit the shops" she practically nudges you out of bed. Yep you were already regretting this.
"Okay but first coffee" you say heading to the kitchen.
"Fine" she laughs.
"Good Morning" Clint smiles as you both walk into the kitchen.
"Is it" you groan heading for the coffee before slumping your head on the table.
"Wow did someone wake up on the wrong side of the bed" Clint teases.
"No but someone did get woken up" you look at Wanda.
"Sorry I just want to get to the shops" she smiles innocently at you.
"Oh yes your big shopping day" Clint smirks knowing you are already hating life.
"Okay no more talking until after I've had this" you say taking a sip of coffee.
"Well I'm going to get ready to go" Wanda announces walking off.
"Wow Wanda looks like an excited puppy" Tony says walking into the kitchen.
"Shopping day" Clint replies nodding to you who has your head in your hands half asleep at the counter.
"Let me guess Wanda woke you up" Tony nudges you.
"I wanted to punch her" you grown and Clint and Tony laugh.
"Good Morning" Steve now says walking in.
"No nope you are all too chipper for the morning" you say refilling your coffee cup and leaving the kitchen.
"Wow someone really isn't a morning person is she"you hear Tony laugh as you leave the kitchen.
Thirty minutes later and you are sat in the car with Wanda on your way to the mall.
"I'm thinking a nice dress" Wanda says as you head inside and drags you to first shop.
Picking up different options Wanda goes to the fitting room to give you a fashion show.
"Mmm not sure on that one" you say as she heads out in the first dress.
"Your right" she says turning straight around.
After failing in the first shop you head to the second one.
"Are you not buying anything?" Wanda asks as you browse the clothes.
"Oh no I'm good" you shake your head.
"I'm gonna try these on" she says heading the fitting rooms again.
"That's the one" you smile as Wanda heads out the fitting room.
"I think you're right" she smiles at her reflection in the mirror.
"Great we can go now" you say standing up just as your phone rings "excuse me"
"Pops hey" you answer as you step outside the shop.
"I was just calling to see if you are coming back for your birthday" Bobby asks down the phone.
"You know what I hadn't even thought about it" you reply not really wanting to do anything.
"I didn't know if you were doing anything with your new friends" he now questions.
"I haven't even told them it's my birthday I was just gonna let it slide by like any other day" you shrug as you reply.
"I knew this one would be tough for you kiddo, why don't you come home" Bobby sounds concerned.
"Doesn't feel right celebrating you know, but I probably will come home" you sigh.
You never really wanted to celebrate birthdays but Dean, Sam and Bobby always made a extra fuss of you on your birthday.
You spot Wanda leaving the shop.
"Look I gotta go Pops I will call you later to let you know, love ya" you say quickly hanging up on him.
"Everything okay?" Wanda asks.
"Oh yeah just Pops" you smile at her "Okay can we go now please"
"Yeah I need to get ready" she replies dragging you to the car.
"Yeah I'm not helping with that, just find me when you're done" you now tell her.
"Fine" she slightly huffs.
"So how was shopping" Clint asks coming to sit next to you on the bed.
"Hell" you reply and Clint laughs "This is why I don't have girlfriends" you roll your eyes.
"Its nice you are getting to know them" Clint smiles at you.
"Yeah yeah" you snuggle into bed.
"I will leave you to it kiddo" he says heading out the room as you start to drift off to sleep.
After a hour nap you wake up stretching and head downstairs to get some food realising you skipped lunch. As you are about to open the fridge, your phone rings seeing Jody's name.
"Hey Jody as I told pops I don't know what I'm doing for my birthday" you answer the phone balancing it between your shoulders and ear as you grab stuff from the fridge.
"I wasn't calling for that" she replies.
"Oh sorry I just assumed as pops called this morning, what's up?" You ask.
"Have you spoke to Claire?" She now sounds concerned.
"Ummm not for a while, why?" you stop what you are doing and hold the phone to your ear better.
"She went on a hunt and I've not heard from her since" she says trying to stay calm.
"Okay well I don't always check in with pops right away, when did she go?" You ask.
"A week ago" Jody replies.
"Oh well let's not panic, why don't you text me the details of where she was and I can go check it out, but I will try calling her first maybe she will pick up to me" you suggest just as you hear Steve shouting for you.
"Look try not to worry I'm sure she's fine" you reply.
"Y/N" Steve calls again.
"I'm on the phone Steve" you shout back.
"You might wanna come here" he now shouts.
"God sake" you huff.
"Everything okay?" Jody asks.
"Yeah" you say as you walk to where Steve is seeing Bucky, Sam and Nat stood with blonde girl. Bucky holding a knife and his T-Shirt wet.
"Found her" is all you say down the phone.
"What?" Jody sounds confused.
"I will call you back"
"Okay please do" Jody says as you hang up.
"I found her outside and she threw water on me" Bucky grunts.
"Hey sis" She smiles at you and the others look confused.
"What the hell Claire, do you know how worried you have Jody" you reply going up to her and playfully hitting her with the pillow you picked up.
"Guessing that was her one the phone" is all she replies through laughter.
"Yes she was worried when you didn't check back in" you stare at her.
"Sorry did she say sister?" Sam now chimes in.
"She did but not blood sister, she kinda become like my adoptive sister" you explain.
"I'm the cooler sister" Claire adds.
"Yeah sure" you roll your eyes.
"Care to explain why she threw water in my face" Bucky glares at you and you can't help but let out a little laugh.
"Yeah I was just checking to see if you were a..." Claire begins to explain.
"It's just something we do" you glare at Claire hoping she gets the hint.
"Right" Bucky now looks at you confused.
"I came for your birthday" she turns to you.
"Did she say birthday?" Steve asks.
"No nope she didn't, she must be confused" you quickly reply.
"Y/N you haven't told them it's your birthday tomorrow!" Claire now sounds shocked.
"Nope so thanks for that" you now sound annoyed
"Excuse us" you say going to push Claire to your room.
"But..." she goes to defend herself.
"Move" you warn her grabbing the knife from a Bucky.
"You can't just not check in after a hunt for god sake Claire have we taught you nothing?" You now turn on your stern voice.
"I'm sorry, me and Jody got into this argument and then I just thought I would come here and surprise you but it took me longer to get here than I thought" she replies sitting on the bed.
"Always check in with someone that's the rule, don't make me change my mind on letting you hunt" you sigh.
"Oh please you don't let me" Claire replies.
"Who do you think convinced Jody and who also trained you" you warn her.
"I'm sorry I'm guessing for the way you shut me up pretty quickly you haven't told them about what we do" she now looks at you.
"Nope not exactly a easy job to explain" you say going to check on one Claire's cuts you notice on her arm.
"Why didn't you tell anyone it was your birthday?" she questions.
"Don't feel like celebrating this year" you shrug.
"I miss him too" she looks at you with sympathy.
"I'm still holding out hope I will find him" you sigh.
"Y/N it's been a year" Claire holds your hand.
"Yeah but they can't be gone" a tear slips down your cheek "I refuse to believe it"
"Come on let's go get a drink" Claire says.
"You're not 21 yet may I remind you" You laugh.
"Party pooper" she huffs "fine how about you introduce me to you brother and those two rather good looking guys downstairs"
"Well since I don't really have a choice, fine but remember no hunting talk" you say getting off the bed.
You and Claire head downstairs where everyone seems to have gathered, turning to look as you walk into the room except Wanda and Nat.
"Everyone this is Claire" you introduce her "Claire that's Tony, Sam, Steve, Bucky, Bruce, Vision and my brother Clint. I'm guessing Nat and Wanda are upstairs" you say pointing to everyone as you introduced them.
"Nice to meet you" Clint smiles.
"I hear it's your birthday tomorrow so I'm throwing a party" Tony now announces.
"Please don't" you groan.
"Too late it's already being organised" Tony smiles.
"I hate you" you look at Claire.
"Sorry not sorry because now I get to go to an awesome party" she laughs.
"Who said you were invited" you tease her.
"Well I will just gate crash if I have to" she shrugs in response.
"Suck it up sis we wanna celebrate your first birthday with us" Clint slaps you on the back grinning at you.
"I hate you all" you groan collapsing onto the sofa.
